We had a great, relaxing family stay with easy access to the house and beach. The kitchen was well equipped for preparing and serving family meals. The accommodations were clean and comfortable.

Great location! Well stocked and clean. Plenty of space for our group of 9.
8.0 / 10.0Excellent·Aug 2025
Before you jump to conclusions and think this is a negative review - it’s not, we had a GREAT time, and it really is an excellent house and location, however there are a few things to bear in mind…It’s not clear from the listing that the room with the bunk beds is on the ground floor and not accessible from inside the house.While this house is near the pier, it’s also near the pier, which means ALL of the day-trip traffic to the beach will result in high density of crowds. Bear this in mind.The pictures on the listing are a little out of date - the owners have done some noticeable upgrades and touch-up’s and it looks much nicer than some of the older photos show!If you plan to use a Neso or similar style canopy - forget it - you’re gonna have to walk 3 rows down to be able to use it. Shibumi’s are fine, as are regular umbrellas. Just know this and be prepared.Bring your own knives. The ones in the house are about as sharp as an 80 year old politician.Bring your own reuse-able containers. The listing says there are some there - nope.The beach toy closet is FULL of useful toys - don’t bring any sand toys or chairs or carts unless you just want or need them. This was by far the best asset of this property - really well thought out!Check doors and windows when you come in, the cleaning crew left a few open and some of the sliding doors on the rear of the house stick a little and can let hot air in.
8.0 / 10.0Excellent·Jul 2025
When we booked, we were concerned about the size of the house and rooms, but we were very pleased that there was plenty of room and many beds for our large group. The oceanfront location and oceanfront decks are spectacular. I would give a five, but there were several items in need of repair, but they didn't signicantly affect our stay. We would definitely stay here again and again.
